Tapping your foot while playing - Please Stop?

[monsterthompson]

If toe tapping is off the table, don’t get a case of Angus-leg.

What you need, is a proper guitarist.

Dude, they aren’t my guitarists, just buddies I’ll jam with from time to time. My bands are the best guys around.

 

[rtav]

Play prog.

With time and tempo changes every few measures, you won't be able to tap in rhythm at all.

[Michedelic]

On the beat or off it?

I rock with a steady roll...

Do they tap their feet?

 

[MYLOWFREQ]

Relax, we're the bass players and nobody notices us.

 

[Lagado]

Do you tap your foot to keep time? I sure do. And in recent videos of me I see just how distracting it is.

What's the drummer doing? He is supposed to lay that down. That's his job.

Given Maby's movements, it's more 'stepping up and down' than 'out'. White shoes too.

My wife has an issue when I am doing it when using headphones as it annoys her. In the new house perhaps it won't carry as far or I can get some soft leather cushion to put under my feet.

This is a total non-issue.

"And you can dance
For inspiration
Come on
I'm waiting

Get into the groove..."

 

[Lagado]

This is a total non-issue.

It was issue enough that the OP posted a thread on it.

Right.

 

[Lagado]

Right.

Is this a sort of guessing game kind of thing?

 

[Bob_Ross]

It has caused me to stop wearing white shoes on stage.

Whatever it takes...

[Lagado]

I guess they're pink.

 

[Gravedigger Dav]

Tap your foot.

 

[Lagado]

"You put your left leg in
Your left leg out
In, out, in, out
You shake it all about

You do the hokey cokey
And you turn around
That's what it's all about..."
